Greece: I am the master of destiny!

"It's finally starting to resemble what I remember the underworld to be like."

Prometheus looked at the plain of red spider lilies before him and nodded in satisfaction.

Hecate stood to the side, arms crossed, and said coolly, "Do you have a grudge against Cronus?"

"It's alright," Prometheus replied, glancing back at her. "Why do you say that?"

"You seem to be targeting Cronus all along, is it because you see that He is destined to become the king of the gods?"

"If it's because He was destined to become the God-King, why don't you just make other Titans God-Kings? You have that ability, don't you?"

Prometheus certainly had this ability.

The world today is just beginning to emerge, and there are only so many gods, whose trajectories are mostly independent and fixed, unlike later generations where there are too many gods, and even a slight change can easily trigger a chain reaction that can get out of control.

Furthermore, the first generation of gods were always relatively simple and honest, so if Prometheus really wanted to change the king of the gods, he could do so easily.

But after careful consideration, Prometheus concluded that it would be most advantageous for him for Cronus to become the king of the gods.

He hadn't forgotten that Zeus, the king of the three generations of gods, was an incredibly powerful figure, and one who couldn't tolerate any dissent. He would absolutely not allow someone like Prometheus, who could threaten him, to exist.

Therefore, His position and Zeus's position are naturally relative.

If Cronus were not the king of the gods, the king's curse would not have applied to Cronus, and Cronus would not have targeted his own child; Zeus would have simply taken off from the start.

An ambitious person will not obediently become a subject just because his father is not a god-king.

Regardless of who Prometheus supported as the king of the gods, Zeus would inevitably challenge him once he was born.

Before Zeus, no matter which of the twelve Titans became the king of the gods, they would probably all have to kneel.

Moreover, if Cronus hadn't targeted Zeus, the relationship between father and son would have been harmonious, and Zeus might even have helped Cronus take revenge on Prometheus.

Therefore, after taking all factors into consideration, Prometheus used the laws of the prophets countless times to make judgments, and the optimal solution he finally came up with was to continue to let Cronus be the king of the gods, but to greatly weaken His power.

In this situation, Cronus, burdened by the curse and weak himself, will naturally be at odds with his children and will try every means to control them.

Moreover, because He was weak enough, there was no possibility of the sons being too much like their fathers, which prevented the Titans from complaining and ultimately choosing to join forces with Zeus to overthrow His rule.

This would greatly suppress Zeus's development time and also significantly reduce the number of Titan allies that Zeus could have recruited.

In this way, although Zeus had not yet been born, Prometheus had already struck him twice.

There was no other way; the period before Zeus was born, and before he became powerful, was the best opportunity for Prometheus to make his plans.

Although his opponent was an incredibly overpowered opponent, Prometheus felt that he had a great chance of winning because he had the absolute advantage. He even had a complete plan.

However, there's no need to tell Hecate these things.

In response to Hecate's question, Prometheus simply smiled and looked at the underworld he had created.

Life in the underworld is now very scarce. Apart from the few underworld "staff" He created, only Hecate can be considered a "formal employee," while Styx and Nyx can only be considered technical support at best.

However, Nyx indicated that Thanatos, the god of death, and Hypnos, the god of sleep, could come to help Him, but even so, it would only be a few big fish and a few small cats.

Fortunately, humans have not yet been born, and the concept of the "soul" has not yet appeared. The underworld is still in a state of idleness, so it doesn't matter if there are fewer people.

Not to mention...

Prometheus created the underworld at this time primarily for his own protection.

It may seem that He fought against eight Titans alone and defeated them with ease, but this was actually due to the advantage of playing on home ground.

In this world, He is the will of this world; He can arbitrarily modify the rules of the world to achieve His goals against His enemies.

Furthermore, it can prevent the God-King from drawing power from the Chaos world, directly crippling the God-King's strongest ability, the creative power bestowed by the world.

In this scenario, as long as the world doesn't disappear, Prometheus will be invincible within it.

This is also the way out He prepared for Himself.

The only problem now is that this world is too weak compared to the Chaos world. If left unchecked, it will be swallowed up by the Chaos world sooner or later. Therefore, Prometheus has to find a way to strengthen this world.

As for ways to enhance the world, Prometheus already had an idea. The simplest way was to create beings with souls that could die, thus making the underworld an indispensable part of this world.

In other words, it is necessary to create the human species.

As the father of mankind, creating humans was simply Prometheus's job, but he was still too weak to do so at the moment.

Therefore, the most urgent task is to improve our strength.

Law Gods do not have the concept of cultivation. To become more powerful, they either need to give birth to more laws or subdue other laws to become their subordinate gods.

Prometheus was pondering which path was more suitable for him when Hecate suddenly spoke up.

As the weaver of fate, Hecate was a very intelligent goddess. She initially asked a question, but seeing that Prometheus seemed unprepared to answer, she did not pursue the matter further.

The reason I'm speaking up now is because...

"Someone is requesting an audience outside the underworld, and Styx seems somewhat troubled," Hecate said.

"Oh?" Prometheus asked casually, "Who is it?"

"That little girl named Nicholas," Hecate said, "is the daughter of Styx."

"Why is she here?" Prometheus was somewhat surprised and looked towards the entrance to the underworld.

On the black River Styx, Styx looked at the little girl in front of him with a troubled expression, not knowing what to do.

Fortunately, Prometheus appeared soon after.

Seeing the two figures, one white and one black, slowly emerge from the depths of the underworld, Styx breathed a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face.

"Your Excellency Prometheus, Lord of the Underworld and great prophet, my father Oceanus, the ocean god, has specially invited you to the ocean to discuss matters with you."

"An invitation from Prince Oceanus?" Prometheus raised an eyebrow and couldn't help but ask, "Do you know what it's about?"

"It's about the remnants of Uranus."

The goddess of victory, Nike, said in a childlike voice, "That powerful force was originally suppressed by the distant seas and oceans, but it seems..."

"There was a slight mishap."
